Kurt was sat in the hospital with his dad when his dad hand twitched slightly he was coming out of his coma, Kurt hadn’t lost his dad, not yet. When Burt was fully conscious the doctor took him for a series of tests whilst he waited for the results he gave Blaine a quick ring.

They had kept up their weekly coffee dates at the lima bean and Blaine was just as concerned about Burt as Kurt was, he’d come to visit a couple of times to keep Kurt company, Kurt enjoyed his company, Blaine made him feel safe.

“Hi Blaine”

“Hello, what’s up?” said Blaine sounding slightly exasperated.

“My dad’s just woken up, their running loads of tests at the moment.”

“That’s great Kurt.”

“I know… I just hope the tests don’t show that there’s anything wrong”

“I’m sure they’ll be fine, would you like me to come over and sit with you while you wait? I’m just at the Lima Bean with Nick and Jeff…”

“It would be nice but if you have plans with Nick and Jeff that’s fine Carole is around here somewhere”

“It’s no trouble, we’re just leaving… I don’t mind”

“Okay would you please…it’ll be nice to see you”

“Okay on my way, see you soon”

The call ended and Kurt went to wait for Blaine at the entrance… when Blaine’s car pulled up Kurt's heart leapt… Blaine climbed out of the car Kurt couldn’t help noticing how his Jeans hugged his thighs and his plain white t-shirt showed the outline of his abs. Blaine walked over and gave Kurt a big hug.

“Hey, any news back yet?”

“Nope not yet” said Kurt trying to not focus on Blaine’s proximity to him, and the ghosting breath that was passing over his ears and neck.

“Come on lets go get a coffee it freezing out here”

Kurt didn’t feel cold, Blaine’s touch caused fire to flare up under his skin heating every inch… making him feel slightly light heated.

“Yeah, let’s” said Kurt.

Kurt and Blaine were enjoying their coffee when Dr Chang came over to talk to Kurt about Burt’s progress.

“So… is he going to be okay?”

“There seems to be no permanent damage to his brain,” Kurt sighed a sigh of relief, as Blaine’s hand found his under the table and gave it a quick squeeze. “However the heart attack had a huge effect on his body, he’ll need a week of physiotherapy and bed rest, also we’ll put him and on a low cholesterol regimen”

“Is he awake, can I talk to him?” asked Kurt.

“Yes, he’s been asking to see you”

Dr Chang left and Kurt was sat there with Blaine still clutching his hand, Kurt gave him a sidelong glance and Blaine withdrew his hand, Kurt was saddened by the loss of warmth, but he didn’t tell Blaine, they were friends and that’s all and anyway he was being silly he’d only met him a few times.

“Blaine? Will you come with me, I’d like him to meet you… now you’re all grown up and all.” said Kurt

“Sure Kurt.” He replied.

They walked slowly to Burt’s hospital room in silence. Kurt swung open the door to see his dad sat up in his bed eyes open and reading the newspaper.

“Hey dad.” said Kurt in a small voice. “How you feeling”

“I’m much better, but the real question is how are you feeling Kurt, this must have terrified you” said Burt in a quiet, gruff voice.

“I’m fine dad I’m just glad you’re okay.” said Kurt as he began to shift nervously from foot to foot.

He had no reason to be nervous Blaine was just his friend… he really wanted his dad to approve of him though… Blaine meant a lot to Kurt, he’d helped him though his mother’s death and through his dads hospitalisation.

“Err… dad, this is Blaine, he sang at mom’s funeral and we’ve been e-mailing”

“Hello Blaine, you’ve grown… thanks again for helping Kurt.”

“It was really no trouble Mr Hummel, I know what it’s like to lose a parent or two” said Blaine with a weak smile “he’s helped me too, I never used to talk about them, but it’s nice to talk to someone who understands what it’s like.”

“Yes well thank you I understand you’re the reason he started playing again? He said something about a parody musical, and a song… Not alone was it… thank you… err Kurt can I have a quick word with Blaine… Alone” he said giving Blaine a pointed stare.

“Yeah okay” said Kurt slightly perplexed as to why.

He shut the door and pressed his ear up against the door, but he guessed his dad thought he’d do this so he must be talking quietly, too quietly. Burt called Kurt back in to the room, Blaine looked slightly terrified… what had Burt said to him.

“Kurt, erm… I have to go I have err… an extra Warblers’ practice you know with sectionals coming up an all…” he said glancing at Burt.

“Okay I’ll talk to you later” said Kurt, he was worried as to why Blaine was fleeing from the room, what had Burt told him.

When Blaine had left, Kurt rounded on his dad.

“Dad, what did you say to him?”

“Oh, nothing”

“Blaine wouldn’t get all flustered for nothing”

“Kurt, I just don’t want you to get hurt”

“Blaine won’t hurt me; we’re friends, just friends.”

“Oh, so you’re just friends, nothing more”

“Nothing more” admitting this was like a stab in the gut for Kurt; he was really starting to fall for Blaine, why did he have to be so irresistibly charming, and his eyes. “Dad, I love you, I really missed you these past two weeks when can you come home… they didn’t tell me that bit”

“I love you too Kurt, I’m being discharged tomorrow morning”

“Okay, I need to go home and pick up some new clothes for tomorrow before going back to Carole’s… I’ll see you when I get home tomorrow.” said Kurt, giving his dad a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

After tea that night he phoned Blaine… Blaine didn’t answer he tried again and again, he guessed Blaine was in bed it was getting late. So he sent Blaine a text.

Hey, you okay… you seemed a bit flustered after my dad spoke to you, sweet dreams- K

Blaine didn’t reply to that text… he didn’t reply to any of Kurt's texts at all, he didn’t return his calls… or even his emails. Had Kurt done something wrong? What did Burt say to him?
